Ninja,
A finely crafted little piece of dissembling there.
‘I remember when they were secondhand plane salesmen with less than the best reputation. They also did not start National Jet. A company called National Airlines ran an old G1 freighter out of their offices.’
Just to set the record slightly straighter, one of the people you are referring to had many years in aircraft sales. The other was, for a brief period, employed by the business as a financial controller. National Airlines did run a G1 freighter, and subsequently a B727 freighter out of the same offices, primarily because the management and ownership were essentially the same as that of the sales organisation. National Jet was initially a joint venture between National Airlines and Jet Systems, so it is not inaccurate to describe the owners and employees of National Airlines as being amongst the founders of National Jet. There were some apparent synergies behind the concept, but ultimately the National Airlines holdings were sold to the interests behind Jet Systems. The G1 and B727 operation remained with National Airlines and its successors.
They were interesting times...............................
Absolutely nothing to do with the main topic of the thread of course.
